Louise 2.2 crawler tyres

[swervo]

Just slapped a set on my gom . They are preglued on plastic hubs and look awesome with white sidewall lettering . Pretty cheap too . I know everyone recommends beadlock but i am willing risk these . I have the "ardent" and my buddy grabbed a set of "champ" .
We have only had one run so far and will report if/when the glue joint fails .
They're very soft and squishy . Anyone tried these ? Have i wasted my money ?

Louise tires are the same as Duratrax tires here in the U.S. And yes they work good but the foams are VERY soft, good for only the lightest of rigs. I doubt the glue joint will fail, more than likely the foams will break down giving you no support long before you wear the tires out.

Ok thanks lonelycreeper . I see you have experience , what tyre and wheel would you use on a stock gom .
I run a hobbywing fusion slow on granite climbs and gravel pathways .

Personally I only have experience with the Duratrax deep woods....one of the most agressive tread patterns, and really supurb in soft terrain and not bad on rock.

I have a set, don't remember which one. I like them- sticky, soft, good tread pattern.

Those deep woods look like the champs . Nice pic .
We have run these a bit now and they're doing well . The champs grip better on loose dirt
And both types grip rock the same .

They are extremely soft and grippy....but they deterioration is second to none too.....mine lived a season only on chanquish wheels after that the sidewalls were toast.
